Details and Images Of New Walking Dead Season 6 Characters

EW.com has revealed details and images of three new characters who’ll be appearing in season six of The Walking Dead. Place your bets on how many episodes they’ll last.

Carter (seen above between Morgan and Rick) is played by Ethan Embry. He’s a member of the Alexandrian community who’s no fan of Rick’s violent methods. “Ethan plays a combo of a few characters [from the comics] that we actually haven’t hit yet or weren’t able to hit in other characters,” showrunner Scott M Gimple reveals in the EW interview. “He is an Alexandrian, and has been there the whole time, just quite busy.”

Corey Hawkins plays Heath. Gimple enthuses, “He’s terrific and I’m so excited to see him bring Heath to life. It’s been fun and he dove in with both feet. He’s tough and sceptical when the cameras are rolling, and then when they’re off he’s just like a goofy fan. He’s really, really excited to be there.”

Merritt Wever from Nurse Jackie continues her medical theme playing Dr Denise Cloyd in The Walking Dead, a character from the original comics. She will apparently play a critical role in the community. Presumably something more than handing out paracetamol…
